Epilepsy Blog

Epileptic seizures – tell us about your treatment :

The Patients Voice would like to welcome you to our blog to discuss treatment of epileptic seizures. With a wide variety of treatment options now available from surgery to medication we are interested in finding out more about the views of epileptic sufferers and parents of epileptics.
In particular we are interested in the following questions:-

  • How many medications do you take? Have you changed medication recently if so what was the reason?
  • Do you have any experience of surgical intervention? What would you advice be to other epileptics?
  • Have you tried a Ketogenic diet? If so what were the results?
  • If you are a parent or carer of a child with epilepsy can you tell us your story of the diagnosis and treatment of the patient?

Of course we would appreciate any comments you might have on the experiences of living with epilepsy.
Please feel to contribute you thought and share your experiences. All you need to do is type a nickname of your choice and the put your comments into the box. Your comments are anonymous of course!
Best wishes

Belinda
